Thanks to the vigilant eyes of grandrapidsgasprices.com, there is enough evidence to conclude that Speedway and Marathon (same company) are usually the ones that raise prices first, so we now stipulate that Mr. Big works for them, and probably has an office here in Grand Rapids. As to gas prices this week, wholesale prices are the same as a week ago, so we could see prices reset back to $1.67 again, or they could drift down to the low $1.50’s. So, no prediction for now, but perhaps the situation will be clearer on Wednesday.

The name of the site is based off an essay Ed wrote for the Grand Rapids Press titled "The Gas Game". The current website was established later by Patrick DeHaan after he and Ed predicted gas price hikes on GasBuddy's website GrandRapidsGasPrices.com, as well as Ed’s personal web page.

Note: To be precise, add 9/10 of a cent to all prices described on this web page.
